If you’re getting a new neighbor, there’s a good chance that person is moving from the Golden State.
According to NBC Los Angeles, Arizona is the second-most popular location for people moving out of California.
The Census Bureau calculates that the most popular destination is Texas (58,992), a state that is luring California companies. That’s followed by Arizona (49,635), Nevada (40,114), Washington (38,421) and Oregon (34,214).
The report said that many people move out of California because the cost of living is very high, but the numbers could drop when the economy turns around.
